In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. 

All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger.

In this fatwa:

1- Al-Isra and Al-Miraj, the Ascension and Night Journey of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) from Makkah to Jerusalem is from the matters of the Unseen (ghayb).

2- Some scholars view that Prophet Muhammad was shown the future when he saw people burning in the Hellfire.

3- It could be that the Prophet saw the souls of those who are already condemned, but the reality of that is known only to Allah the Almighty.
